Shadow (Touched by the Fae 2)

Step Two: Get to know my parents.

Step Three: Defeat the Fae Queen and save Faerie.

When I discover that there’s a way to do all three of those, I’m game… until I find out that it requires me to do something I swore I wouldn’t.

I have to go back to Black Pine. I have to go back to the asylum. Then, if I survive the confrontation with the Fae Queen, I can finally—finally—put this whole Shadow crap behind me.

No biggie.

With my Shadow Man at my side, and my newfound powers, I know I can do this.

And all it will cost me is one last touch.
